“I haven't been healthy the last couple of years, but I have shown the ability to come back fully healthy and at times even better,” Lee said in January, according to the Dallas Morning News. "I think that's something that I will continue to do. The key now is to be on the field for the entire year and contribute the entire year."

Lee sprained a ligament in his neck last December and missed the Cowboys' final three games of the 2013 season. And in 2012, he played in just six games after he was sidelined with a toe injury.
